At least they made you think about what you hate about them. Hopefully even that inspires someone to write the next Great American Novel.<br /><br />Love them? Great! <br /><br />If we can't be honest with each other, we ain't got much of a thing going. Speak your mind, you know I will.Nadine Lamanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11709289434339532281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422983897713906924.post-22791442349377482652009-06-29T01:23:39.354-07:002009-06-29T01:23:39.354-07:00Thanks, Carrie,

That is so NOT practical at this point. New cover art, new ISBN, and months and months of rewrites and new edits - I just couldn't do it even if I wanted to, and I don't want my life's work to be five million versions of those three books. Time to move on with new stories.<br /><br />Fine if someone doesn't like the books. No problem with that. But jeepers, what a comment to make to a writer. Sigh. Guess that is the price of me encouraging comments.Nadine Lamanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11709289434339532281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422983897713906924.post-2847677300536706912009-06-29T00:58:25.456-07:002009-06-29T00:58:25.456-07:00I like this post Nadine - you challenge peoples...I like this post Nadine - you challenge peoples' perceptions and acceptance of the 'norm'. I write in 3rd person and sometimes in 1st, have to say I am more comfortable in 3rd simply because I am more practiced. But I agree, 1st person can really add different dimensions to how you tell a story.ukfolkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02127548363787460694noreply@blogger.com
